I should have gone into more detail. My apologies for any confusion. Firstly, they are already submitting the paperwork to open for expansion. My group just needs to go in front of the CPC and let them know who we are. The Greek Life Coordinator says that he is almost positive that they will approve us because of the need of a new sorority, and the difficulties of doing a cold start. So in short the campus is already aware of the need for a new sorority it's whether or not they will approve us to become a student org during the process that is in question. My campus does not allow locals and any group hoping to be affiliated in any way with greek life must meet the approval of the CPC. I hope that clears that up. Secondly, I and several of my women have rushed. The chapters have been forced to accept so many women because of how few sororities there are, that they are having trouble even finding places to meet where they will all fit (we don't have housing on our campus for greeks). Even with the chapters accepting a larger load than they can accommodate many women still go without bids. My campus is following NPC procedures and I am following campus procedures. I have done a lot of research on the different expansion rules depending on the group and the campus status. Our campus has completely acknowledged the need for a new NPC sorority, I am just really worried about public speaking and the process of final approval. This process just started in late September so this is the first major red tape that I have had to cross and I am very nervous.
